Remarks & Notes 
Ge 4/4 II # 626 "Malans" of the Rhaetian Railway got a new cobaltblue/ivory paintscheme to match the parlor cars in september 2024. The design of the locomotive was made by graphique artist Michaela Hardmeier in cooperation with the RhB, the desire came from the association Pro Salonwagen RhB, to have a faster locomotive then the "Crocodile" Ge 6/6 I in front of the Alpine Classic Pullman Express (ACPE) cars. Ge 4/4 II # 626 is in the normal duty with freight or the Glacier Express trains. This day, she pulls the PE 920 GLACIER EXPRESS Zermatt-St.Moritz from Chur to St.Moritz, between Cazis and Thusis, with the Sogn Martegn church probably of the 9th century. The Glacier Express circulated this day between Zermatt and Andermatt and from Chur to St.Moritz, because the line of the Matterhorn-Gotthard-Bahn was interrupted between Oberalppass and Dieni due to a derailment on 23th december. In the background is the 3247 meter high Ringelspitz, the rocky peak left, which is apparently only the second highest of the massif.
